Getting the Dell case wires hooked up to a non Dell mobo is a difficult task.
Your Dell XP cd will probably not work on a non Dell mobo.

8100 mob replacement
Yes. I it seems that you I would need a pwr connection adaptor or replace the pwr supply and modify the case to accept the ac pwr cord. I 'll look around for another case.

I would just buy a new case, the amount of time you will spend working on it will justify buying a new case. I also believe the rear I/O panel shield is proprietory, regular panels won't fit.
I went through this ordeal with a friend who wanted to upgrade his Dell 8100.
